Session Overview:

What does it take to operate an efficient, safe, yet profitable small business? Join us as we explore some of the practical issues facing small companies in their effort to thrive economically and navigate the OSHA rules and regulations that apply. The NFIB, the nation's largest and most influential association representing small business will discuss the organization's advocacy role and we will be joined by two small companies who have, through OSHA's On-site Consultation Program, successfully found balance in the areas of worker protection, profitability, and compliance.
